(a) The operator of an underground gas storage project shall establish a Records Management Program to ensure documentation of essential information is created, maintained, protected, and retrievable when needed. The operator shall submit its Records Management Plan to the Division.

(b) The Records Management Program shall identify all records related to evidence of conformity to the requirements in this article as essential, and these records shall be maintained for the lifetime of the project.

(c) The Records Management Program shall establish a filing and storage strategy that ensures records are accessible and protected against environmental damage. Records may exist in many different formats and shall be managed according to the format in which they are maintained. Records may be protected following a graded approach, commensurate with the value of the record and the cost to reproduce the information.

(d) The Records Management Program shall establish a process for tracking records throughout their entire information life cycle so that it is clear at all times where a record exists, which is the most current version of the record, and the history of change or modification of the record.

(e) The Records Management Program shall allow for prompt retrieval and production of records upon request from the Division.
